Funny is what is becomes.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 29, 2010 -> 01:40 AM) Sun Times Article And I thought Lou Pinella for Randy Winn was bad... This has to be some sort of joke right? Good god, I would drive him all of the way to Florida myself.

QUOTE (Pants Rowland @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 03:52 PM) I'd call that uneducated, not necessarily dumb. The guy is clearly street smart and frequently plays a lot of educated individuals for chumps. He is no idiot despite his love affair with small ball and the old Lefty-Lefty Right-Righty matchups. Honestly everything I have ever seen or read about Ozzie is that the only thing he knows is baseball. He is extremely baseball smart, despite popular opinion. Outside of baseball, it is pretty scary.

My feeling exactly

Kind of easier to march through jungles when you have napalm on your side.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 06:11 PM) If you've ever worked for a large bureaucratic organization and had to coordinate with another branch of that bureaucracy, you've probably encountered the phenomenon where the person you're dealing with is obviously trying to avoid having to do any work that's outside the norm for them. Even if it's just a little bit of work. Softball for Kap and 2K5: in this case I'm referring to the U.S. government Damn, and I thought you were talking about toddler sweatshops in Asia. f***ing kids don't want to do anything.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 04:35 PM) Huge weekend for IU. Cody Zeller, Yogi Ferrell, and Hanner Perea all on campus, as well as 2011 commit Austin Etherington. Everyone up here is pretty set on Perea going to Indiana.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 05:45 PM) Early voting is a godsend, I wouldn't be able to vote on November 2nd this year without it unless I tried to squeeze in as the polls closed. Don't bother, I am going to have your ballot changed anyway.

QUOTE (Tex @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 05:18 PM) The worst are infomercials for school board races How is the campaign going? 3rd public forum in three nights tonight. Two for two so far. Plus my nasty opponent is about to get a nasty surprise of her own... She evidently doesn't know how to fill out her financial disclosures, or doesn't think they are important. oops.

He obviously didn't learn anything from General Sherman about how to march through places effectively.

Everyone is illegal there.

Cambodia seems like a place that wouldn't have many 7'2" aliens.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 02:20 PM) If the prison guards union spent heavily to pass a bill like this, would you oppose the bill? (if this type of bill were proposed in CA, that's exactly what would happen; that union there is ridiculous). Honestly it has gotten to the point where I ignore all advertising for the most part. Exactly one person's advertising swayed my vote this time around, and it was because his campaign was so incredibly ignorant, I wouldn't vote for him again. I am holding out hope the rest of the area jumps with me on Joe Donnelly. I voted for him last time, but never again.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 02:05 PM) Is Ozzie that dumb? He doesn't come across to me as dumb. I honestly thought it was pretty well known. The guy has problems reading and writing.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 02:15 PM) I don't incessantly mean to call people out. I just tire of dismissing players' performance when they go to the NL. San Francisco had a great offensive attack last night. Hard hit base hits as well as Uribe's bomb. The Giants abused Cliff Lee. I don't know how many times I had to read about the Sox win streak only coming against NL teams. Hudson's effort immediately dismissed cause he was in the NL. I heard Grobstein jump all over a guy on his show for dismissing the NL and since then I've paid more attention to it and I wish that argument frankly would go away forever, that's all. Giants may win the WS. IN other words you have one example, against the mountain of evidence of the other side.

You know as well as I do that Lithuania isn't really a real country anyway.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 12:40 PM) Do you mean secret arms in the "genetically engineered" sense or in the "I watch Glenn Beck so I'm stockpiling" sense? Secret arms in the "I can lie about Republican opponents with out saying which union is doing the spending"

Why does anyone care about Lithuania anyway?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 12:29 PM) I was thinking of the flex accounts being a tax-reimbursement for money already spent instead of pre-tax savings. Anyway, my criticism of the "use it or lose it" rule stands, and as NSS said, it's just too much of a PITA for a relatively small amount of money. Now, if I were taking hundreds of dollars of Rx's every month, that'd be a different story. I'm in agreement with his proposal to fix it. But, then again, maybe the "use it or lose it" is a significant part of funding the program. That makes absolute sense to me. I also agree with the "lose it" part being exactly why I have never signed up. Any money you don't spend is a 100% loss, versus whatever you would save on taxes. Unless you have significant and regular expenses, the plan doesn't make a lot of sense.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 08:39 AM) Yup, that kid at Notre Dame died doing the same thing I do..... His tweets were just spinetingling.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 01:01 AM) How about not playing in a whole s***load of time could be a reason why he is rusty? If you are telling me he isn't running fast, than say so, but that shouldn't be impacting his average for the most part (outside of legging out a couple infield singles). The reason he isn't hitting for an average probably has a lot to do with rust and a bit to do with the fact that he's going up against more experienced competition at times. That's what I would tend to believe.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 12:23 PM) I have no idea what I was thinking when I typed that. Sorry. Yeah I wasn't sure if you were trying to say that, or to talk about paying for medicine out of pre-tax income.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 12:15 PM) He'll get something close to it. If the Sox got Andruw Jones for $550 k, Johnson can't cost more than a million. The deal will probably be a cheap base with lots of incentives. No one thought he would get $5.5 million last year either.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 28, 2010 -> 12:17 PM) That terrible rule is why I don't use the program. Here's an idea, simply stop taxing medicine if that's the end-result you want. Which kind of taxes are you talking about? I know the state of Indiana doesn't tax medicine.
